How about we take him out of the game Lou.

Soto is such a good catcher. It is just so un-Cub how he has developed. He is the anti-Barrett.

Yes. They are either going to make us all very happy, or crush all of us very hard this year. The team in 84 was the only one in my lifetime that could be close. I think the 69 team was great, we know how that ended. Edmonds would like to tell NSBB to suck it by the way. Did the 69 team maintain this pace this long, or were they already flailing by now? The '69 team tanked about late August, IIRC. And the Mets played out of their minds.

OMG...somebody ---SOAPDROPPING--- pinch me! against rookies... Nonsense. Rich Hill is a major league pitcher if he does not walk people. The only thing holding him back was mechanical or between the ears. Looks like he worked it out.

Word. If he had a better arm it would not even be close. Scappy Gritmeister. Theriot has been awesome at the plate, but his defense stinks. It's not just the arm. Yep...sort of screwed. Too many second basemen on this team.

I love good D-Lee. 4-0

Kosuke take the day off again. WTF.

The Cajuns are en fuego.

Hey Steve Stone....how is the velocity looking? 98 Miles per [expletive] Hour

This is not the best barometer. Marquis looked like Cy Young yesterday. But his pitches are really nasty.

I think the word is ridonculous.

........too quick and fierce with the hug. Oh the irony of it all.

Funny how our two stud righties bat left handed. Make that elbow pad as big as possible.

The lesbian Card fans love it.

Bring back Pie.

Really pisses me off that they are using the stretch as a complete plug during the song. enough that it happens after the song is done.

Ricky Ricardo.

Cardinals losing!

Actually, the last time we did that, he pitched like complete [expletive].

Here comes the granny. Is Dunn up?

How about a fastball....

Yeah, and I don't agree with him at all when he says the Cubs are taking a bigger risk than the Brewers. For one thing, We'll still have Z and Harden next year. Sheets and Sabathia are both goners (CC for sure, probably Sheets), and they gave up LaPorta, who was the likely replacement for Fielder when Prince leaves (though they still have Gamel, but I like LaPorta more). Gallagher is good, but none of the other players the Cubs gave up have any future on the team, nor were they elite prospects. Put it this way: if the worst were to happen and the Cubs implode down the stretch, we're still in fine shape going into 2009. If the same happens to the Brewers, they will have suffered a net loss (LaPorta and the PTBNL). Though if the Brewers did nothing they likely enter 2009 with Gallardo as their ace, but they still would have had their top ML ready prospect. Even if Harden were to suffer a catastrophic injury tomorrow, the Cubs wouldn't be out that much. I think he's talking about this year only. Harden has a lengthy injury history and the Cubs dealt their quality pitching depth to acquire him. So I think he's just pointing out that CC doesn't have the injury history and the Brewers didn't have to trade any current MLB players to get him. The main difference here is that Sabathia is truly a rental, while Harden is not.

A four run lead would be nice.
